Essays On Magical Idealism
First published in 1925, Saggi sull’idealismo magico ("Essays on Magical Idealism") marks one of Julius Evola’s most original and audacious philosophical works. Drawing upon German idealism—especially Fichte and Novalis—as well as Western esotericism and Hermetic traditions, Evola develops a vision of subjectivity not merely as a passive contemplator of reality but as an active, transmutative force. Central to the work is the idea that true knowledge and spiritual transformation emerge through an inner "magical act" that unites thought and being. The book rejects both materialist realism and abstract metaphysics in favour of a doctrine in which the Self, through conscious discipline, asserts its sovereignty over experience and becomes the axis of a new metaphysical order. More than a theoretical treatise, Essays on Magical Idealism proposes a path of inner realisation—a spiritual alchemy aimed at the transfiguration of man.
The Complete Introduction to Magic
All three volumes of the occult classic available together as a deluxe boxed set for the first time Volume I includes translations of rare texts alongside rites, practices, and arcane magical knowledge Volume II offers studies of mystery traditions throughout history and shares authentic initiatic wisdom and a rigorous selection of initiatory exercises Volume III explores esoteric practices for individual development and realization of immortal and divine potential, handed down from a primordial tradition In 1927 Julius Evola and other leading Italian esotericists formed the mysterious UR group. The purpose of this group was to study and practice ancient rituals from the mystery traditions of the world, both East and West. They produced a monthly journal containing techniques for spiritual realization, initiatory exercises, magical rites, accounts of personal experiences, translations of ancient texts, and original essays on the occult. Many years later, in 1971, Evola gathered these essays into three volumes. Available together as a deluxe boxed set for the first time in English, these volumes present the steps necessary to purify the soul with the light of knowledge and the fire of dedication as well as allowing the reader to be liberated from conventional dogmas—religious, political, scientific, and psychological—and see with the clearer eye of realization.
The Path of Cinnabar
Julius Evola was a renowned Dadaist artist, Idealist philosopher, critic of politics and Fascism, 'mystic, ' anti-modernist, and scholar of world religions. Evola was all of these things, but he saw each of them as no more than stops along the path to life's true goal: the realisation of oneself as a truly absolute and free individual living one's life in accordance with the eternal doctrines of the Primordial Tradition. Much more than an autobiography, The Cinnabar Path in describing the course of Evola's life illuminates how the traditionally-oriented individual might avoid the many pitfalls awaiting him in the modern world. More a record of Evola's thought process than a recitation of biographical facts, one will here find the distilled essence of a lifetime spent in pursuit of wisdom, in what is surely one of his most important works.
